LOCAL TALENT.
Sir-May I through your pages express my appreciation of the programme of songs by Bach presented from 3YA recently by Helen Hodgins. Hearing local artists, young or old, with such a high standard of performance, makes me hope that through the -radio much more probably unsuspected talent in our midst may be brought to light. Let us have more of the best of our own vocalists and instrumentalists. We have our Lilburn, Horsley, and Farrell. I am sure there are many more who may yet through the microphone reveal the true worth of the best New Zealand can produce in the great art of music. May I also mention how much I enjoy the consistently good Sunday afternoon programmes given from the YA stations.
